On the other hand, what's the point in studying an employable subject (like Medicine) if you have absolutely no interest in it either? That won't last. So the issue is managing to reconcile these two things - interest vs salary, which I am having trouble with at the moment.

Interest vs Salary. Everyone, perhaps only the mortals would encounter this issue.
My advice is get a degree in a field that is remotely related to music and one that makes you employable.
Many aspect of music also comes from things like history, art etc.
You would probably need life experience to be able to come out with the best music composition as well.
Enjoy and experience life, look out of an opportunities to work with musicians. You definitely do not need a degree to be a musician unless you would like to teach.
